McDonald's is testing a 'walk-thru' for pedestrian customers

A McDonald's inLlandudno, North Wales recently
opened a drive-thru lane for pedestrian customers, reports
The Sun. The test was reportedly an immediate success,
leading to the restaurant making the walk-thru lane a permanent
fixture.

However, there is one major
catch: the walk-thru is only open between the hours of 2:30
a.m. and 4 a.m.

The walk-thru lane was debuted to
serve customers leaving a nearby nightclub, and, as a
result, is only available to customers willing to stay out until
at least 2:30 in the morning. While the Llandudno
McDonald's main restaurant closes at midnight, the
location's drive-thru has a 24-hour license. Basically,
the walk-thru provides a solution to the problem of how
to serve car-less customers craving McDonald's after an
evening of clubbing, even when sit-down service had wrapped up in
Llandudno for the day.

This new service makes Llandudno
one of a handful of McDonald's with a pedestrian walk-up option,
including a location in Savannah,
Georgia.
